Success In the South.

Nowhere on earth is prohibition
succeeding as it is in the South. I
told you in Louisville that whisky
had been voted out of ninety count
les in Georgia. Now 12O counties
out of 1876 rejoice in the removal of
the curse, including Atlanta the
Gate City of the South, with a pop
ulation OF 10000, which has said to
the internal tide of rum that has so
long deluged the land, "Hitherto
shalt thou come, but no farther,
and here shall thy proud waves be
stayed" Alabama is following the
lead of Georgia, and it will not be
long before whisky will be swept
from our borders. A majority of
the members of our last legislature
were ProhibitiOnists, and every re-
quest coming up from the counties
for local option, or direct prohibi-
ton, was granted. And still the
fight goes on. The truth is we are
forgetting all other issues in a
grand effort TO destroy this evil.

animation, incapable of the func-
tions of active life until they are
again moistened. These functions
are infection and reproduction. In
water, especially in filthy water,
they are propagated by millions
upon millions of its offspring.
This is what takes place when
the discharges from a chOlpraic
patient are carelessly thrown out
into backyard or privy. The
germs lie for awhile on the earth;
if it is dry they are soon waited
into the air as dust, capable of being
inhaled by human lungs; if wet,
breeding commences, and the
germs penetrate with the surface
water into drains, springs, ponds,
ETC., seeping through the walls Of
cisterns and wells, and are so i'm
bibed by those who drink from
them; or draining into rivers carry
infection into distant communities.
1t may readily be seen how rail-
roads have contributed to the
spread of infections. Choleraic
patients are received on board, or
men are attacked with cholera
while on board, and their excre-
ments dropped along the road;
every such deposit becoming q
possible center ofinfection. Steam
boats in the same manner commune
icate direct infection to our water
courses, and it has always been
found that epidemics of this class
follow the lines of railroads and
water courses.
From the above considerations it
will readily be preceived that the
disposal of filth, and especially Of
human excrement, is the capital
problem before those who are con-
cerned with preserving the health
of towns and cities. 1t was for the
purpose of advising with you on
this topic that we circulated the
questions above referred to.

not be wasted, but 60 far towards
rendering you exempt from such
maladies as diptheria, dysentery,
malarious fevers and many other
scourges which afflict the race.
Filth-and by filth is meant any
animal or vegetable matter in the
process Of decomposition-filth is
the genial soil for the growth Of all
infectious germs; but in the case
of cholera it is more than that; it
furnishes the seed as we'll as the
soil. The one fact which is now
completely established in reference
to this disease, is that it's germs
are contained in the discharges
from the stomach and bowels of
choleraic patients, and that the
most effective way of spreading it
is by the diffusion of these germs in
the water used for drinking and
other domestic purposes.
The disposal of human excrement
then, while it is q most important
problem in all sanitary measures,
becomes the one paramount pro-
blem when providing against
cholera. Let US consider, then, two
leading subjects, which will form
the substance of this paper to the
exclusion of all others.
lst. How do the germs of cho.
lera, after being elected from one
body, find their way into the organ
ism of another?
I'd. What is the most efficient
method of guarding against the
transfer?
LIST. Air and water are the effec'
tive media and vehicles for the
dispersion of these germs; water
being by far the most so, for this
reason: in air the germs simply live
in water they live and breed. 1t il

proprietors of the Kansas brewery,
which came up for argument on ap.
peal to the United States Supreme
Court at Washington, has been the
subject of considerable discussion,
The New York Tribune gives the
following version of the present con.
dition of affairs:
"Mr. Choate's argument against
the Kansas law was long and
elaborate one, the general drift Of 1t
being that the Kansas Legislature,
though it had undoubted power to
restrict and abolish the man ufacture
and sale of Intoxicating liquors, had
gone about destroying the liquor
traffic in an unconstitutional way.
The liquor business had been con-
demned as a nuisance, without CIV
ing those interested in it a chance
to appear tefore jury in their own
defence, and the manufacture and
sale of liquors having been declared
nuisance without jury, mere
court of equity could not take legal
steps to abate it. The whole reason
ing is technical and goes to show
that there are serious constitutional
flaws in the Kansas Amendment as
it stands. Mr.. Choate also argues
that according to the Constitution
no State has a right to prohibit the
manufacture Of liquor solely for
export.
"The two Kansas cases have been
carried up from a United States
Circuit Court, where both were de-
cided in favor Of the brewing inter-
est, the Judge holding that accord
ing to the Fourteenth Amendment
the State could not destroy the
property of citizens without giving
compensation"
An Associated Press dispatch,
from Washington, says:
"The motion to advance four pro-
,hfbftion liquor cases from Iowa and
one from Georgia was denied by the
United States Supreme Court.
They involve the same questions
which were presented by the case
of Zieboid & Hagelin, already
argued. The Acknowledgement Of
Kansas filed petition for leave to
m Ike an oral argument in the case
of Ziebold & Hagelia, netwithstand-
ing the fact that the Court has
already taken the case under adj
visement. By reason of misap-
prehension he was not present when
the case was called. The question
presented in this case involves the
constitutionality Of all prohibition
legislation since the adoption of the
18th Amendment, which does not
provide for compensation to brewers
and distillers for the value of the
property destroyed by the forcible
closing Of their establishments"
